What are cheek implants?
Cheek implants are facial implants that are placed to improve the contours of the face. They can be fabricated from several different types of materials, but most commonly, they are made from silicone. Cheek implants can be placed in both men and women seeking improved facial appearance, though patients should be over 18.
